Phil, George and Caz have all been fantastic with helping us to buy our first home! Could not recommend them enough! We did not have a clue what we were doing at the start but everything was explained to us clearly. They are very efficient and super fast dealing with all the paperwork on your behalf, nothing was too much trouble, even when called after hours! We managed to buy our first home within few weeks (even with massive backlogs due to covid). Put an offer on mid april and got our keys mid June as promised by Phil! 
Thank you so much 🙂 we will definitely return in the future 🙂 x

From the first call with Phil we knew that we were in good hands. As we needed advice during the pandemic, meetings were done virtually via Zoom. Phil was extremely warm, friendly and put us at ease quickly. It was clear that Phil knew his stuff and the way he explained mortgages and all associated products made it easy for us to get our heads around things and when the time came made the process of selecting a mortgage as straightforward as possible. Once we had selected our lender we were handed on to Phils team who were all a credit to the business. Taking care of us each and every step of the process and even once things had been arranged checking in to ensure the process was still going well. Bristol Mortgages Online came highly recommended to us and we in turn would highly recommend them for your mortgage advice needs.

Bristol Mortgages Online helped find our first mortgage and were clear, responsive and helpful throughout the whole process. George managed the entire process with frequent updates and clear requirements from us, as well as explaining everything we were unsure about as it our first time applying for a mortgage. Phillip guided us through the options with illustrations and the pros/cons of each. We felt in control the whole time without being pushed in any direction but also felt we were given the knowledge to be confident with our decision. I would recommend Bristol Mortgages Online to anyone without hesitation!

Phillip and his team have been super helpful and supportive throughout the mortgage process! We are first time buyers and were unsure how the process worked and what mortgage would be best for us. They did an excellent job helping us through this and were always happy to answer questions when we were a bit lost. They always responded quickly and were very friendly and lovely to chat to! We would recommend anyone use them as we had a great experience

Further to our first meeting with Phil we’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Paul Kelly also at Bristol Mortgages online. Paul has arranged another re-mortgage for us, and we’ve been more than happy to recommend him to other members of our family. Given the choice, we wouldn’t go anywhere else! Thanks again, Paul.

We had given up hope of our daughter ever being able to get on the property ladder but thanks to Phil Clark and Paul Kelly she has finally managed to buy her first flat. We would highly recommend Bristol Mortgages online.

We had changes in our circumstances a few times throughout our process of buying our house which meant getting the right mortgage was trickier than it had been before. Phil and his team were really supportive and made contact with the right people at the various banks to ensure speedy responses. Any question we had, they were available and we really valued the service they provided. All in all, we turned our house purchase around in about 5-6 weeks which was excellent - thank you

Buying a home is likely the biggest financial commitment you will ever make. Whether you are a first-time buyer stepping onto the ladder, a homeowner looking to remortgage, or a seasoned investor expanding a buy-to-let portfolio, the process can often feel like a maze of jargon, paperwork, and fluctuating interest rate

Taking that first step onto the property ladder is one of the most exciting milestones of your life—but let’s be honest, it can also feel like navigating a maze blindfolded. Between deposit requirements, credit checks, and legal jargon, the process is daunting.

Recent global developments, including escalating tensions in the Middle East, have started to influence financial markets and, in turn, UK mortgage rates. Understanding how these events filter through to borrowing costs can help you make more informed decisions.

If your current mortgage deal is coming to an end, you’ve likely started hearing the words "remortgage" and "product transfer" thrown around. In today’s shifting economic climate, making sure you are on the best possible mortgage rate is more important than ever.
